Somewhere, you must have created an Adapter and set it on the ListView. In your onItemClick() method, there's a parameter called position. It gives you the index of the clicked item in the adapter. You just need to call myAdapter.getItem(position) and you will get the result you want.

Actually, they both return a View. You need to cast the View to the type

you created as your entries (e.g., TextView), then get the data out of there (e.g., getText().toString()). If you're relying on the adapter's built-in row types, they'll be TextView instances.

Yes, I did do that, it shows some weird string, not the stuff I want. Here's some code:

public void onItemClick(AdapterView arg0, View arg1, int position, long arg3) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub

new AlertDialog.Builder(activity) .setTitle("Fruit" ) .setMessage("Is" + **[FRUITNAME]**+" your favourite") .setPositiveButton ("Yes", yesListener) .setNegativeButton("No", noListener) .show();

This alert is shown after the user picks a fruit out of a ListView, by clicking on it. Now, I want to show **[FRUITNAME]** , for which I need to know the name of the clicked-fruit. I read these fruits in through a cursor and a SimpleAdapter. I need to know how to get the name of the clicked fruit from the listView.

Thanks. Sylvester
